📝 A note on jump rope terminology…

Using the term “Leg Over” is more preferable to “Krouger,” “Cougar,” “Crooger,” or any other variation of this name.

Kroogar is a bit more popular, but it’s a very non-specific name.

Granted, you can do whatever you want, this is the internet after all haha. But if you’re looking to understand jump rope more clearly, adopting the “Leg Over” terminology is a bit more descriptive and can help when testing out related skills and combos (like the Leg Over Swing, Leg Over Release, EB Leg Over Swing, etc.)
